A/N: Thanks stiffkittens101 and IsThisYourCard for your reviews. You guys are awesome for reviewing and taking your time to post one. I am very grateful to you both. As for your curiosity, stiffkittens101, it may be answered later on in the story through flashbacks and stuff. I just wanted the characters to settle in for a bit. Lina is my OC, so you might not like her that much, and there is another OC that would be coming in soon. I know this is a Repo! The Genetic Opera, and I know I'm doing the show some injustice. I also know that this fic isn't as violent or sexual as it should be. But keep in mind, this is T-rated, not M. Hopefully, the readers understand.

Chapter Two

A black van was parked right in front of Shilo's home. The van looked like it could fit eight people in there. Just as Shilo, the children, and Graverobber came out of the house, a woman came out of the driver seat of the black van and waved at them.

Shilo smiled while the children waved back and yelled out her name. Graverobber was utterly confused as to who this woman was. She had scars on her arms that seemed to have been stitched up. It seemed as well that she didn't get any surgery like Shilo. When Shilo opened the gate, the children instantly ran to her and crowded around her. She let out a chuckle and messed up some of the children's hair.

"Thanks for welcoming me, everyone," the woman told them.

"Thanks for picking us up, Lina," Shilo said to her. The woman chuckled once more.

"No problem, Shilo, but you do have the paperwork, do you," Lina asked her. Shilo smiled and nodded before giving her a manila envelope. She took it and put inside the driver's seat of her van.

"You aren't going to look at it," Shilo asked. Lina rolled her eyes.

"I trust you, Shilo. And anyways, I'm too lazy to check anything," she told her. Lina then noticed the man beside Shilo. One of her brows was raised before a smile came across her lips.

"And who is that guy? Your boyfriend, Shilo," Lina teased. Shilo looked over at Graverobber and then at her.

"Nope. Just a friend staying over. His name is Rave," Shilo told her. Graverobber gave her a look when she called him Rave. Shilo seemed unfazed by the stare.

"Oh really," Lina questioned, not at all convinced.

"Yes. The name is Rave. Nice meeting you," Graverobber spoke up. Lina nodded approvingly towards him.

"Not too shabby. You might be older than Shilo, but age doesn't matter in this messed up world," Lina said.

"Lina! Like I told you, Rave and I aren't together like that," Shilo said, frustrated.

Lina shrugged with a mischevious smirk before saying, "Not now, but soon. So, are we going to go or would you like to argue with me?"

Shilo sighed before giving up.

Four children were able to fit in the back because of how small they were. Graverobber sat with Shilo and one other child. Lina sat in the front while laying the manila envelope on the passenger's seat.

"What? Nobody wants to sit in the front with me? Am I that scary," Lina asked in a joking manner before laughing and driving off. It took only thirty minutes until they stopped in front of a market area. Lina parked wherever and looked over at everyone.

"I'm stayin' here. I've got to watch over the van. Don't know who's going to steal this van," Lina told Shilo. Shilo nodded and smiled.

"Do you want me to buy you anything," Shilo asked. Lina shrugged in reply.

"Can you get me some bandages and something edible to eat? Don't buy food from a vendor that they make themselves. You don't know what they put in their food," Lina told her. Shilo chuckled and nodded.

"So you finally learned your lesson," Shilo asked teasingly. Lina shivered a bit at the thought.

"Yeah. Now go. I want to take a nap," Lina told her. Shilo nodded before she told everyone to get out of the van.

Shilo made sure the children were paired up and held hands. He held Emma's hand and they started walking with the children paired in two in front of her. That way she could have an eye on them. They stopped in front of a building before Shilo let go of Emma's hand and opened the door for the children to come through first. Graverobber entered after them and winked at Shilo while Shilo rolled her eyes and entered last. Graverobber was no gentleman.

Inside was a clothing store. It was quite small, yes, but the clothes looked quite good. Out from behind the counter popped out an old man. He was smiling happily, though it was obvious you could see surgery on the elder's face.

"Ah, Miss Wallace. It's been a while you visited," the old man said. Shilo smiled and nodded. The children were in the kid section, having fun running around and horse-playing. The old man didn't seem to mind at all. Better yet, he would chuckle sometimes when he saw the children having fun.

"Yes, it's been a while. How are you doing, Robert," Shilo asked kindly.

The old man chuckled and stared at Shilo quite observantly. Graverobber noticed the look and find the guy rather disgusting to look at her in such a perverse look. Unlike himself, he whistled and got in front of Shilo, pretending to look through the clothes nearby on the rack.

"Oh, who is this man? Finally got a husband, have you," the old man said with a creepy smile.

Shilo chuckled before taking Graverobber's hand. Graverobber looked over at her confused and Shilo kissed him on the cheek. This obviously startled Graverobber.

"The Kid kissed me! I knew she was checking me out," Graverobber thought.

"Yes, his name is Rave. Could you help me find some clothes for him," Shilo asked innocently. Graverobber assumed it was fake innocence. The old man chuckled and nodded before disappearing into a door from the right.

"Kid, what are you doing," Graverobber whispered when he was beside her.

"Trying to get you some brand new clothes made by the master himself with a discount," Shilo whispered back, unaffected by everything.

Graverobber was more shocked than ever before. She had the guts to kiss him, and it was only to get a discount on clothes. Graverobber was used to being used but to be used by Shilo like this? Well, it didn't look like he was complaining. Actually, he seemed to like the bold Shilo before him.

When the old man opened the door from getting his tools to measure Graverobber, Graverobber creeped up behind Shilo and put his arms around Shilo's waist. Shilo was startled for a bit before she looked up at him and glared. He gave a smug look and didn't mind at all at her glare.

"Two can play at that game," Graverobber whispered seductively near Shilo's ear.

Shilo shivered at the hot breath near her ear. She appreciated him, really. But sometimes, Shilo wants to throw something at him. She understood he was playing with her, but she didn't really mind at all. There was a sort of feeling inside Shilo that she shouldn't have for Graverobber.

The first time she saw him, she thought he was strange. And when he took out the Zydrate of the dead body for the first time, she thought he was crazy. She was quite afraid of him really. But time and time again, he saved her. For some reason, though, she always ended up worse than before. But that part, she knew wasn't his fault. And the day she met with him again, something struck inside her. But of course, she wouldn't tell him that. Graverobber would laugh at her anyways.

"Now. Now. This isn't a place for you two to snuggle each other. Let me get your husband's measures, and I'll start right away. What kind of clothes does he like, anyways," Robert asked.

"He likes his to be more street clothes, open chested, please. Can you make three of them for him? Two should be formal wear and two sleeping wear. I guess that would be it. Would you like anything else, honey," Shilo said sweetly towards him.

There was a moment that he was turned on once more when she gave him that angelic, too innocent smile. There was also a moment where he wishes he could hit his head to know what was happening. He was too shocked that it made him speechless as well.

"Colors? And I presume I should make two coats as well since the cold season is coming soon," the older man continued to question.

"Any dark colors are suitable for the shirts, but beige is also okay as well. All pants should be black. Can you make his street pants comfortable? No jeans since it would make it harder for him to move. And yes, the coats should be a rustic brown color with many pockets. They need to be light-weight as well. He doesn't like his coats to be heavy," Shilo answered, rendering Graverobber more speechless. There was something wrong with this scene here, but Graverobber couldn't utter a single word.

"All right then. I'll finish it as soon as possible. I will call Lina, and she would pick it up for you. Is that all right," Robert questioned more. Shilo nodded.

"Thanks a lot Robert. I really do apologize for asking you for so much," Shilo told him. Robert gave a light chuckle and signaled with his hand that it was all right.

"It's a pleasure doing business with you, Mrs. Wallace or did you take your husband's surname," Robert asked curiously once more.

"Oh, Mrs. Wallace is okay. I haven't changed my last name in the registry yet," she told him. Robert smiled and nodded.

"While you wait for the clothes, why don't you buy him ready-made clothes for him? It would take about two weeks to finish them all," he told her.

Shilo nodded before she turned around to face Graverobber, who let go of her waist slowly.

"Why don't you check out what you want to buy, Rave? I'll tell the kids to get some clothes as well," she told him before giving a peck on his cheek and left him to battle his findings alone.

"You are a lucky man there, sir," Robert started when Shilo was out of hearing range, "She seems to know what you want as well. She's a sweet girl, so don't go breaking her heart. She deserves someone who loves her truly. This world needs more loving couples after all,"

Graverobber suddenly rub the back of his neck nervously. Now, he completely feels bad. Why? He doesn't even know either. He always knew something was special with Shilo, but he didn't know she would know him so much. And for some reason, he felt something for the Kid. Maybe like a sister? Hah, too funny. Mother? He wouldn't mind, but that was impossible. His own child, maybe? What the hell! Maybe lust? Maybe. She didn't have enough curves for him though, and she wasn't fully developed either like those addicts and those scalpel sluts and those female Genterns. But he did want her though, that he couldn't deny. Oh, how much he wanted her so bad. So was it love? Eh, it better not. The Graverobber likes woman and do things to them, yes. But to love someone? That is virtually impossible in his dictionary. Or maybe not.

"Fuck. I'm in deep shit," Graverobber thought.

To get his mind out of the thought of love, he looked through the clothing racks. He found some clothes that seemed to be close to his taste and started piling it up in his arms. Just as he found three pants and two shirts, and one belt, Shilo came over with the kids. And all thoughts from before came rushing back in his head.

"It took only two days. Two days! What kind of spell does she have on me," Graverobber thought.

"Are you ready, Rave," Shilo asked. Graverobber coughed a bit and answered a "yeah".

After she purchased the children's clothes, all of Graverobber's, and hers, they left and went browsing to find interesting things while Shilo bought the bandages and some snacks for Lina. And of course, Shilo made sure it was safe. The day turned out well in the end with some chaos at the clothing store though. Just as they came back, a long black limousine parked in front of Shilo's house. Things turned out for the worse when everyone, other than the children, found out who it belonged to. Shilo told the children and Graverobber to stay inside. She didn't want them to be in danger while she faced… the Largo family once more. Lina was in front of Shilo though when they came out of the van. Lina held onto a small metal cylinder-shaped thing in her hand.

"Why are the Largos here," Lina whispered rather heatedly.

"I don't know. If anything happens, get the children and Rave to safety," Shilo whispered back. Lina shook her head immediately.

"You'd think I would let you face that crazy family alone," Lina asked, "Like hell I would."

"Thanks, Lina," Shilo whispered to her friend.

"No problem. I did want to get some fighting action on. Been a while really. Missed it as well," Lina said with a chuckle and Shilo laughed too.

But Shilo, no matter how much scared she is to come across the Largos again, became fearless for everyone she cared about. She learned that from her father. And sometimes, she thinks she may have the kindness and love from her father as well, though she didn't inherit the killing instinct like her father did.

"Shilo, don't forget you aren't alone. Since I was trained as a kid and was once a GENcop, I can make a make-shift protection enough for you all to run away. Don't forget those kids need you more than without you," Lina told her. Shilo looked over at her for a moment and nodded.

Shilo always felt safe when Lina was there. She was the one that protected her against danger like Graverobber once did. Though she had a temper, she means well when it came to protecting people. Shilo felt fortunate to meet someone like her, though their meeting was rather under dangerous circumstances.

It was the two female bodyguards that got out of the limousine first with their guns ready to aim and shoot. Amber Sweet came out afterwards with the famous Largo brothers behind her. The Largos were the same as always, and that was what Shilo was afraid of.

"It's been a while, Shilo," Amber Sweet greeted with her usual air about her. This gave Shilo the chills, but she stood her ground.

"What do you want, Amber Sweet," Shilo asked straight to the point. Her expression became neutral while observing the Largos and the bodyguards. She wasn't going to miss anything small as a hand gesture because she knew that was what might do them in. There was no room for error for the Largos weren't known for playing nice. At all.
